@Riot The Magma Chamber or 1v1/2v2 game mode

Greato·8/19/2014, 2:20:31 AM·7 votes·10,510 views

Hello, I was wondering if we will see development return on this map/game mode. I would love to see a 1v1/2v2 map/game mode. I enjoy playing with a friend and am tired of customs where people don't know the rules. Any response is greatly appreciated and I am quite tired of the same old same old Nexus destroying.

Thanks, Frost MadLife

I'm going to be disliked because of what I'm going to say, but because of the lack of interest in the 1v1/2v2 featured game mode that existed a while ago (Showdown), I feel they scrapped much of the intent in making such a map. I know a bunch of people that visit the forums probably played the game mode a lot during it's existence, but the small interest in the mode dropped off a bunch. Brackhar said that "[i]f the modes were left on permanently, the queue times for each would be pretty atrocious after a few more weeks." He also later brought up that there was always the case where the mode will come back in the future, but I don't think there will be any plans of keeping 1v1/2v2 or any of the other featured game modes available for a longer duration than a couple weeks at most. Long story short, enjoy the mode when/if it comes back. =]

I would play the hell out of a ranked 2v2 game mode.

No mode is off the table to be brought back. If we do bring Showdown back we will want to better understand what made some players enjoy it and what turned other players off. Our goal is to evolve modes that we bring back so that its not just the same thing as before (it should be better the subsequent times).

All that said, not all game modes will be nexus knockers.

I also think it would be cool if they could add a 2v2 queue to ranked teams in the Showdown.
